- children’s use of space within the home, rules and negotiating processes; places used solely by children; places for learning and/or playing
- how children construct their own spaces and how they share the spaces with other adults
- children and the funerary spaces
- children and their workplaces and conditions
- how children´ spaces can be visible in archaeological records, texts or architecture
- children´s places at museums
